Beverly I. Null

Beverly Null of Union, died Wednesday, November 20th at her home at the age of 95.

In accordance with her wishes she will be laid to rest, without ceremony, in the Union Victorian Cemetery next to her husband, Erwin.

Beverly Irene was born on August 6, 1929 in Baker, the first of two daughters born to Homer and Mary (Weisner) Laam. Beverly was raised and educated in Union graduating with the Union High School class of 1947. She married Erwin Royce Null in 1953 in Lewiston, Idaho. He, being a civil engineer, the couple lived in various places throughout their life before returning to Union. To them a daughter Denise was born. Edwin died in 2018 after 65 years of marriage.

Beverly was a religious person and was always involved in a protestant church wherever they lived. Later, as her health became more challenging her church attendance was in front of the TV. She was very talented artistically but only used her talent to entertain herself. She painted mostly pictures of wildlife, cougars, deer and elk. She also enjoyed sculpting and carving birds and squirrels and other small creatures.

Surviving relatives include her daughter Denise Javaid of Colorado; grandsons, Eric and Michael Kemper; her sister Carol Kohls and a niece Becky Williams, both of Union. She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband and a nephew Tom Mayberry, just this past June.
